Sent it out for powder coating and haven't received it back yet but here's a couple of pics installed with 12k Smittybilt winch in raw steel.

I really wish this bumper was tighter to the body. Kind of like a like this. A little different triangulation and it would be awesome.

Yeah, the amount that it sticks out kinda turns me off a bit but on the upside, the winch fits with plenty of clearance.
 
I welded casing/pipe cut in half on tube to protect ac drier and reused factory hooks welded to bottom for recovery points. Super solid bumper for amount of weight.
 
With help from this thread I just ordered the non-stinger version for my 97 shipped for $375 from Poly Performance (discount code Get10back)!

Will try to remember to throw a pic on this thread when it's on :cool:
 
Has anyone just purchase the winch plate yet?

Would like to follow up on my own post: Poly Perfomance emailed me after buying saying I had to pay them $50 more because their site was wrong. So they don't deserve the shout out since they refused to honor it, but 4 Wheel Parts does for price matching it!

That's low class of Poly Performance. Their mistake, they should own it.
 
Box Rocket I agree, but it worked out better since 4 wheel parts had the wrong part number on the site so I got the stinger for the price of the non-stinger version. Got it on last night along with the new bumper filler and grill. Here are two pics I took this afternoon when it was only 110 outside. Now to find a part for the back of that driver mirror...

New Trail Gear winch plate

Here it is... I don't have a winch yet so I mocked up a battery pack. I need to also mount a power steering cooler somewhere??? There is a lot of room on the plate so why not? The plate is 50lbs.

I'm not done, its a work in progress...




I will cut down my bumper a bit more then bolt it on top of the winch plate.

Those idiots STILL have the part numbers swapped. I'm gonna call them and get it sorted. I do not want the stinger, so I sure as s*** ain't gonna pay more for the non-stinger version.

Do you have any other pictures of the mount? I'm seriously thinking about getting one and it's the best option to keep the front end light. I would also flip my Road Safe Shackle mounts on top of the winch mount for better clearance and easier access.

Bump it Offroad makes a tube bumper also that has a lot better angles and clearance, doesn't stick out 2 feet, you may be able to find metal techs also

What other angles do you want.
Also I believe @ExpoMax was selling his.... he might still have it.

Yeah I'm hoping for sub $400 at the most. Good to know about though
